woo hijack
There’s this thing on OKC called “woo,” which is like poke on facebook. It’s an easy way to contact someone without actually having to say something. Like flirting with your eyes at a party. Anywho, lots of people think that woos are lame because someone goes to a whole lot of work to write out a thoughtful profile and all that someone can think of to do is “woo” them? Ignoring possible puns there, I’m sure that it is horribly frustrating for most people who tend to recieve woos. And so the “woo hijack” was born. Instead of just ignoring or turning off the woo, some inventive person decided that they’d change the meaning. “If you woo me I will send you a line from a book I am reading.” “If you woo me I will tell you what I honestly think of you based on your profile.” “If you woo me I will donate $0.01 to a cause I think you’d like.” Etc. So, I’ve added a “woojack” of my own. If you find me on OKC and send me a woo, I will give you a secret message during a recording of the show. I won’t address you by name or by screenname or anything like that; I will, however, try to make it clear that I’m talking to you in particular ![]()
